Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2
The funds investment objective is to produce income and to provide an opportunity for growth of principal consistent with sound common stock investing.
The fund invests primarily in common stocks of established companies listed on the New York Stock Exchange, selected from an Eligible List maintained by the investment adviser based on fundamental research and screened for strong earnings and dividend records. The fund seeks to deliver above-average yield relative to the S&P 500 Index while maintaining broad diversification across high-quality stocks. Multiple portfolio managers oversee separate segments of the portfolio, with securities held or sold based on the adviser's judgment of long-term value and income potential.

Return profile
Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to Apr 2026
May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
This fund changed legal form during the period shown. The history above is continuous — it spans both eras, and the change is not a gap in reporting.
